You know what specifically is causing the SD card issues that we're all experiencing? I know a few got over it. But what in the framework is causing no pics to show up for most? Those fixes have never worked for me and a lot of others.

[HTC Sensation] lallolu:
The current ICS is not as smooth naturally. I installed 4.0.4 but I went back to 3.4.5 because I think gingerbread has some features I really appreciate, like having in the notifications bar the last 8 applications ran, the extended settings, having icons in menu instead of just texts, etc.

This is probably just personal preference but I am staying off ICS for now.

I was simply letting you know that they do exist, as a reply to your previous post.

To quote yourself:

So they are "already made"...

Since you seem to have "stolen" some other stuff from Lee, I wasn't sure if you could add them to your ROM or Add Ons...

[HTC Sensation] kumprise:
So far, so good, 4.0.5 is quicker than 4.0.4, all the things I've tried so far works, Gallery 3D solves problem with wallpaper and contact pictures. The earlier problems, however, remain, to name two, I can't restore contacts from SD card (some of us use that option, if we want normal pics preserved, not low-res ones from google), and Write speed on SD card is still awful. I copied some files from Recovery, it works as it should, so it's the best way to copy larger files on phone for now. Something in ICS chokes SD write. Feels like some virus check or something....

Not complainin' , mind you, just beta-testing, as I feel we all should.
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Woah have you guys realized? battery life seem to be a ton lot better on ICS 0.o

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------

Hmmm I agree, SD writes down to 4.4mb/s, I'm not sure if this is how my SD card is supposed to function or maybe its really something holding it back in the system
[HTC Sensation] kumprise:
4.4mb/s?

Is that megabytes? If so, it's much faster than my card... Mine is class 4, works like class4 in cardreader and while in recovery (write speed 4 MB/sec and more), but only 1MB/sec while in ROM (max, and takes a while to get there). What troubles me is that it works in cardreader as it shoud, otherwise I'd blame it on the card itself.

And yes, I do believe batt life is somewhat better - waiting for full working day to confirm.
[HTC Sensation] shadowillusions:
Hmmm thanks, i guess i'll just stick with 3.4.5 until everything is smooth and as good as bug free for daily use.

[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
I seem to remember exactly the same problem on an earlier OS version maybe on my Desire usb speed fine in recovery, but whilst mounting usb phone switched on absolute pants!

Copy card contents to pc, format card in the phone menu, copy backup back to card.
[HTC Sensation] emm_stra:
Where can I find that?
[HTC Sensation] mat9v:
It will update radio and few others firmwares in the phone but will not update RIL (as it is a part of ROM and changes with it). Some users report ICS works better with new firmware (it may be placebo ;)) but from my experience it certainly gives better reception when in low signal area. Battery also seems to be better.
[HTC Sensation] ajonesma:

InsertCoin ICS problem

With InsertCoin ICS ROMs I have a problem with MyPhoneExplorer, a program I use to synchronize calendar and contacts with Outlook (bypassing Google, wire synching).

I do not have a problem with the InsertCoin Gingerbread ROMs.

With 4.0.1 and 4.0.5 (clean Superwiped installs) I get the error message

OBEX Errorcode D0 Internal Service Error

when I try to sync the info. An early ICS ROM (RCMix 1.0) does not have this problem synching.

Anyone have an idea of cause and/or fix?

ICS Firmware / Radio question

I've been running both ARHD ICE 5.0.x series and Insert Coin ICS 4.0.x series ROMS on and off (alternating) for a couple of weeks now.

I have not been able to notice much difference between them to date. They both seem smooth and functional, allowing for known minor (trivial) issues. Happy to live with either as they are as my basic operating system (but will gladly upgrade to see further elimination of little bugs, and optimisations)

Currently I'm on Insert Coin 4.0.5 and it's running well.

I have one question about best radio and firmware that my reading of posts and IC pages left me confused about:

I'm currently using the firmware he posted on Mike1986's thread here: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1412618

This is for ARHD ROM, and shows:

HBOOT 1.20.0000

Radio 11.15.3504.16_M

Seems to be working fine with Insert Coin so far.

Is there any point to flashing the firmware file found here: http://insertcoin-roms.org/htc-sensation/4-0-ice-cream-sandwich/downloads?

Also I see a second link to a PG581MG file at the bottom which says: Radio – If you flashed the new one please flash back to the old one.

So which of the two PG581MG files linked on the page should I use?
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
You have ICS firmware so no point flashing it again, if your radio is working ok why change it
[HTC Sensation] craven667:
I got firmwear and Rom but never did change ril not sure how were or what one
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
It's in the rom and again if it's working ok why change it?

Hi,

I found the bug. Under 'people', when I want to add/modify contact with modifying the photo, it doesn't allow me to add photo from Gallery. The error msg is "Unfortunately, the gallery has stopped".

Anyone has this problem? Please advice.
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
I don't use ICS but just reading around, I've seen 2871827187 users post that it's a "known" problem. Correct me someone if I'm wrong!
[HTC Sensation] kumprise:
Everyone has that problem. Use Gallery 3D, More/Set as/Contact photo...
[HTC Sensation] bkcheah75:
Thanks for your good advise. The alternative way works for me!

Another problem, if you go to HTC People Widget, and add the contacts, the photo get shrinked or scaled-down and looks very ugly. I used gingerbread v2.3.5 before and no such problem.

Need advice again if can fix it.
[HTC Sensation] kumprise:
That's Google doings, not hTC. If U save contacts as "Google", it will respond with 110x110px pics, small and blurry. To change, in ICS, you need to copy contacts to phone, and manualy change pics back (except ones that comes from Facebook, they are fine after a while). When we get operational hTC Sync (last time I checked, it was not working with ICS), you can use Outlook sync instead, and all your contact photos will be fine, provided they are saved as "phone" type. There was a link few posts back, regarding that issue (Outlook sync), had no time to check it...

Oh, and contacts export to SD is useless, so far, U can not import from SD, for now.
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
I have made an observation of a possible bug:

When you create a folder on the home screen, and put apps which are stored on the SD card in it: after a reboot the mini icons that you see on the folder remain as generic green Android app icons, instead of displaying with the actual specific app icon.

Small stuff, but curious if others are seeing this.

Bloody hell... I just flashed 4.0.5 yesterday! You're working to damn fast ;)

So far this is the best ICS rom i've tried. Not surprising since I used insertcoin roms on my desire as well.

I like the senseless ICS versions as well but I still miss some HTC widgets.

Therefore InsertCoin is the way to go.

Only thing I'm missing is OTA updates :P

But manual updating is such a small downside, I don't really care

Hello Baadnwz,

Thanks for the update, the phone is currently being flashed :-)

Just the little story, I got my sensation one week ago and I was aware of it's two cpus. I also was aware that dual cpu wasn't handled correctly in <= 2.3.3, so I began to search for a rom with 2.3.4 and I found yours. I never tried another one, I'm really happy with it, it makes me like Sense ;-) Thanks again for your dedication !

So my question is: will you include the helvetica font in next update, it's much more nicer with it.

Thanks !

[HTC Sensation] :
before someone asks:

Here is how you update (with a clean wiped rom).

I am not saying you MUST wipe, but I always wipe, and i never have issues you guys have with some weird non-explainable phenomena...

recovery - wipe all (data/factory reset)

wiping /dalvik-cache after wiping data is BS, as the DC resides in /data which you formated. All this tripple wiping is one of the myths of android that have got their own life. But again -> absolute BS!

also the ROM install script does from BAADNWEZ for you. It is formatting system and dalvik-cache so again, not necessary to do it manually

then install V1.6 - DO NOT!!! install the theme yet (never install a theme on an unbooted fresh install, leads to f/cs - never do that, no matter what ROM/THEME/PHONE you are using)

then boot into rom

Do the initial configuration, i usually use the initial config to log-on to market to let it automatically restore my apps. This is the best way I find, cause if you add your google account after (like when you booted rosie, the market doesnt always automatically restore your apps (which is one of the nice things about wiping - auto restore from market which cuts the setup time in half)

SOME people use Titanium Backup to restore things. I dont play games, so have no settings I need to restore, I always start from a fresh install, which after 2 years and flashing happily always proved the best and safest way. Otherwise you are on a witchhunt which of your backup restores now screwed up something.

reboot into recovery when apps restored

apply theme and reboot

then do the rest of the config

you are set and f/c free :)
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
dude if your signature is correct i see you don't like sense and you removed it and use an alternate launcher .

2.3.4 smoothness comes in the use of Sense UI, thats where all 2.3.3 rom stock or custom have issues.

on vanilla or ADW or your weapon of choice even my good old Bravo is blazing
